Some of the things I learned in college"

Marrige is societies aproval of two peoples mating habbits.

Marrige's sole purpose is the explotation of women.

Finaly,
No soliologist is ever happily merried.

If you are in a relationship were you are sexually exploited, than yes that is what marrige will mean to you. If a woman takes what she wants from sex, and enjoys herself (not just having sex becasue her husband wants to), then it will tend to be better. The one thing my wife told me is that she has sex with me for her not me. I don't really care as long as I am getting sex.

Marrige is what you make of it. Just as anything else is. The more you worry about being exploited the more you will be. That is why alot of women have problems having an orgasm. Men figured this one out a long time ago (sex is fun, enjoy it). Good luck to you!

Perhaps historically, marriage has led to the exploitation of women. But in our current society, with much more equal rights, this does not happen as often. After all, if a women has to consent to marry you and can get a divorce if she is being abused, there is not as much of an issue of women being trapped or opressed by marriage.

I'm not denying that such marriages exist, but then again there are also marriages where men are being oppressed, exploited, and abused.

we had an interesting discussion today in government about gay marriage. and theres this conservative bitch in our class who is a major hypocrite. first he goes off on how gay marriages are immoral, and how they shouldnt be allowed. and then he changes it to companies should be allowed to recognize them if they want to give benefits(we were discussing marriage benefits, i.e. family health care coverage) and then he changed it to the states should be able to vote on it for themselves. he later went on to say that jesus christ started christianity in worship of himself...but anyway, i still think its all about the benefits, but i honestly dont know....

Gay marriage is OK with me. My personal belief is that anybody should be allowed to make that committment and be recognized by the government.

I understand that most societies (all?) in the world recognize marriage as a union between 1 man and 1 woman. Some societies recognize that beyond marriage, homosexuality outside of a marriage is allowed (ie. men are off to war). Many of these homosexual-friendly societies still recognize marriage in the traditional sense... but I still think we can pathfind on this one.

Actually
Many other countries and society consider the U.S. quite primitive in their generally anti-gay ways. Sure, many other countries don't go out and say 'Everybody bang your buddy,' but at least they don't even have to debate over gay rights. Hell, even in Classical Rome (and of course Renaissance Italy) pretty much every man was Bi, if not full on homosexual, though if they weren't, nobody had a problem with each other. Yeah, gay marriage is cool, considering marriage should be about love and commitment in the first place.
Damnit.
